This is actually the thing that I find disturbing.  Every chess program or other
significant piece of software (for that matter) has bugs in it.  So a program
with some problems is not a surprise nor even a concern.  But the originator's
failure to act on those problems (as Chessbase has an extensive history) is a
very big black eye.

IMO-YMMV.
